Ruben

Classic Ruben Sandwich

Ok so this is easy and everyone knows how to make a ruben...but just the same, mostly cuz I really like the picture.  Mmmmmm, tasty.

Butter outsides of 2 slices of rye bread (no carraway seeds for me thanks)

Create sandwich keeping buttered side out.  Saurkraut, corned beef, swiss cheese, and thousand island dressing.  I keep the dressing on the inside protected by the beef and cheese to avoid soggy bread.

Fry until nice golden brown and insides are nicely warmed and melty.

Have some fun with variations:

• Try the classic ruben with creamy ceasar dressing instead of 1000 island.  Mmmmm.

• Or saurkraut, genoa salami, muenster cheese, and western dressing on homemade multi-grain bread.

Sandwiches are good. =)
